Nice man!

finally got to take the humminbird out and see what's what. or try. lol. I still don't really know what's what but I'm learning each time I go out. Couldn't find any deep structure in the pond I was on and could only stay for about an hour and a half so after taking as long as I could racing around looking for underwater structure I ended up hitting a grassy point and sticking a 1.5 lb pickerel on an rtrap for my only catch. Think it's my first rtrap fish though which is cool. alright bout to pass out.

Hope you've been out catching some!!

Man I'm a little drunk and just getting back for the night but I see you got a new 385ci and I did too! Just got it installed and put it in the water yesterday! So let's learn together! I look forward to reading this in more detail in the morning with some coffee lol congrats on ur first offshore structure fish!!

Looks like the beginning of a great day! Nice picture man. Really sums up that feeling we all know and love

Installed my fish finder today I wanted to take it out tonight and really can't believe I didn't, but I had some prior obligations and I guess it's good to let the sealant sit overnight. It took everything I had to drill holes in the transom Can't effin wait to get out and see if/how this thing works.

Way to get at'em man!

Sounds like you guys were killin'em out there! Partayyyy

Great times there man thanks for sharing! You seem like a quality guy.

d**n what a monster! Did you get a scale on her? Good job man!

Thanks man! Best of the season so far! Not for long though

Good God man where'd you get the miniature tape measure? Those are the biggest sunfish I had ever seen I had no idea they got so big. I mean r u kidding me??? lol

Got the boat running and should have my fish finder installed today. It's my first time doing all this so I'm learning as I go, trying to go slow so I don't make too many mistakes lol. I don't have the trolling motor yet so I'm installing my tranducer in the stern. If all goes well today maybe I'll be able to go out tonight and see what this fish finding's all about lol. Yeah it was hard to find any bites and it was good to find a few deep - but I don't really like that lake and probably won't be going too much. It's just close and easy to drag the gf to lol. But I gotta get out on better waters here! Hope all is well man!

Nice Bass!

Went out for an hour today to a nearby lake that I didnt' think we'd do too well at. The lake is small and gets a lot of traffic etc. Couldnt get a jig bite or crankbait bite, couldn't get a swimbait bite. Moved around to different points and structure, not a bite. Finally slowed way down and jigged a small T-rigged senko in about 25 feet of water, slowly working it up the water column from the bottom, jigging it up and letting it drop. Finally got a few bites. Maybe 5 feet off the bottom? Little smallmouths. I guess that means the school was suspending? lol anyway I managed to land one - got a pic but its a dink lol so I dont think I'll be posting it unless I'm begged to show what a Maine dink smallie looks like haha. It was good to figure them out though - I found a school although it was a school of little guys. Don't think I'll be spending much time on this lake.

Nice one! That's a big ole bass! Way to bring her in!

Awesome story, Awesome fish, Awesome fiance wearing an awesome shirt! I'm not gonna try to guess the weight but I'd say ur estimate seems pretty spot on! She's a natural!

You really give me something to aspire to One day I'll hold a bass like that! Way to stay on them!

Thanks Boss!

hey thanks!!

haha nice story man sound like a good time out with your son! I often have trouble with the forum's image uploading too and just use an external image uploader and paste the code here. I personally use tinypic but photobucket etc should work. Good of you to spend time with your son fishing!

haha yeah man! Hopefully soon I'll run into some 4's like you Thanks for checking out the thread!

Think I'll just maintain an ongoing log from now on instead of posting a new thread each time I go out. So I went out today for a little bit and caught a decent lmb. Spent another hour out trying a new place, and I think I found one I liked. Only tried a few points but on the second one I hooked into this 2.5 lber. Nothing compared to the hogs u guys pull but I'm having fun out there lol She took a crank bait off a grassy point. Real healthy northern strain imo

Nice it's always good to see a father and son team out together!

Man that's great! Way to go! You're locking in on the big ones!
